Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Torina A. Collis, Appellant Pro Se. Elena D. Marcuss,
MCGUIREWOODS, LLP, Baltimore, Maryland, for Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Torina A. Collis filed a civil action alleging she was
terminated in violation of the whistleblower provisions of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act, 18 U.S.C.A. § 1514A (West Supp. 2009).
Collis appeals the district court’s order granting summary
judgment, for reasons stated from the bench, in favor of the
Defendant. Accordingly, we affirm. See Livingston v. Wyeth,
Inc., 520 F.3d 344, 351 (4th Cir. 2008) (discussing elements
needed to establish a retaliation claim under the Act). We
dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal
contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the
court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
